Research for the Psychotherapist: From Science to Practice - Tapa blanda

Críticas

"The field of psychotherapy has struggled in its attempts to close the gap between research and practice. Although the practicing clinician and psychotherapy researcher are both interested in how to help people in distress, they all too often fail to benefit from each other’s contributions. This thoughtful and invaluable review of clinical research findings, tailored specifically for the practicing clinician, represents a most important step in closing this gap." Marvin R. Goldfried, PhD, distinguished professor, Psychology Department, Stony Brook University

"Lebow and Jenkin’s 2nd edition of Research for the Psychotherapist comes at just the right time―when all clinicians are asked to be knowledgeable about the evidence that our treatments are effective and informed by science. Thank you, Lebow and Jenkins, for making psychotherapy research eminently understandable! They help us see why it is so important to test various approaches to vexing human problems. And they instill a value about the importance of systematic study to the day-to-day reality of being an effective psychotherapist. Lebow and Jenkins help us move toward greater integration of science and practice by making the science clear and understandable and the issues that drive its quality fascinating and worthy of our attention. If you want to become a better therapist, read this book!"

Reseña del editor

While empirical, scientific research has much to offer to the practice-oriented therapist in training, it is often difficult to effectively engage the trainee, beginning practitioner, or graduate student in the subject of research.?This fully revised and expanded edition of Research for the Psychotherapist is an engaging, accessible guide that bridges the gap between gathering, analyzing, presenting, and discussing research and incorporating that research into practice. The authors present concise chapters that distill research findings and clearly apply them to practical issues, while also helping readers progress as consumers of relevant research.
